modern apparel

Current fashion items

Modern apparel is contemporary clothing—what people wear now as opposed to historical or traditional dress.

The phrase appears most often in retail and fashion contexts: a modern apparel brand, the modern apparel industry.

It can suggest current styles, but often simply means clothing sold today rather than anything particularly fashionable.
